The deep sea is the last truly unknown place on Earth, which makes it perfect territory for dragons.

The Thalassic tongue

Sea names flow. They lean on liquid consonants — l, r, n — and rolling vowels that rise and fall like swells.

  • Roots: Thalas (sea), Ner (tide), Lev (deep serpent), Mael (maelstrom), Ondr (wave), Pel (abyss)
  • Thunderous tails: -iathan (leviathan), -strom (maelstrom), -ruun (depths)
  • Silken tails: -ira (mother), -ene (pearl), -isse (foam), -aia (song)

Example names

  • Thalasira — the Sea Mother
  • Leviathan — yes, the forge can rediscover the classic
  • Maelstrom — the Maelstrom Maelstrom, a name that insists on itself
  • Ondrene, Keeper of Tide

Tides and temperaments

Sea dragons can be serene or catastrophic. The Noble temperament yields guardians — Warden of the Sunken Halls — while Wrathful yields storms that drown fleets.
